Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of loop cutaneous ureterostomy (LCU) in the treatment of primary obstructive megaureter (POM) with severe hydroureteronephrosis (HUN) in infants under 1 year of age，so as to provide reference for infants unsuitable for stage-Ⅰ ureteral reimplantation. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 12 infants with POM and severe HUN treated with LCU in our hospital during Jan.2019 and Dec.2023.The clinical characteristics，surgical techniques，indications，postoperative complications，stage-Ⅱ surgical approaches，and follow-up outcomes were summarized. Results: All operations were successful，with an average operation time of (37.08±7.53) min (6 left-sided LCU and 6 right-sided LCU).During the mean follow-up of (10.12±2.70) months，all infants showed clinical improvement，with complete resolution or significant alleviation of hydronephrosis，reduced ureteral diameter，and increased renal cortical thickness.Complications included asymptomatic bacteriuria in 3 cases (25%) and urinary tract infection (UTI) in 1 case，all resolved with oral antibiotics.Four cases developed peristomal rashes，which improved with topical treatment.Eleven infants underwent stage-Ⅱ Cohen ureterovesical reimplantation at a mean age of (15.20±2.07) months.Notably，27.3%(3/11) required ureteral tailoring or plication during reimplantation，which reduced the risk of ischemic necrosis from excessive trimming.During the follow-up of (22.17±13.93) months，hydronephrosis and renal function improved，and no febrile UTI or bladder dysfunction occurred. Conclusion: LCU is a safe and effective method，which can provide adequate urinary drainage，relieve obstruction，stabilize renal function，and allow time for ureteral maturation and renal parenchymal recovery.LCU also facilitates subsequent stage-Ⅱ surgery by reducing ureteral dilation.

Ocular accommodation refers to the process by which the ciliary muscle creates a clear image of the object in the retina by changing the refractive power of the lens. When the accommodation ability of the eye is insufficient, the imaging focus falls on the region behind the retina and hyperopic defocus is easily formed, resulting in axial growth and leading to the development of myopia, and it is found that most myopic patients usually have some accommodation dysfunction. Myopia has become a public health problem in China, and the prevalence of adolescents has increased dramatically. How to prevent and stop the occurrence and development of myopia is a major challenge. Previous studies have found that ocular accommodation dysfunction is associated with the occurrence and development of myopia, and the measurement of parameters related to accommodation function has certain guiding significance for the prevention and control of myopia. The purpose of this paper is to review the correlation between myopia and ocular accommodation function, with a view to providing new ideas for the prevention, control and treatment of myopia.

The pathogenesis theory of"spleen deficiency and stasis toxin"in gastric cancer holds that spleen is the source of generation and transformation of qi and blood,that spleen deficiency is the internal basis of disease and throughout the disease.Stasis toxin is based on spleen deficiency,which is the fundamental pathogenesis of gastric cancer.In the pathological process of gastric cancer,a variety of metabolic substances in tumor cells and tumor microenvironment,mainly glucose metabolic reprogramming,undergo metabolic changes to reconstruct the phenotype and function of tumor-related macrophages,which is consistent with the pathogenesis theory of"spleen deficiency and stasis toxin".Therefore,this article focused on the reprogramming of glucose metabolism in tumor microenvironment to drive the phenotypic remodeling of tumor-related macrophages,explored the scientific connotation of the pathogenesis theory of"spleen deficiency and stasis toxin"of gastric cancer,and provided references for the theoretical and clinical research on the treatment of gastric cancer by TCM.

Objective To analyze the correlation of interferon-induced protein with tetratricopeptide repeats 1(IFIT1)with immune infiltration and prognosis of ovarian cancer(OC).Methods GEO database was employed to select the tumor immune related genes,and Kaplan-Meier and Prognoscan databases were used to identify the genes significantly associated with OC prognosis.The differential expression of IFIT1 between OC tissue and normal tissue were confirmed with GEPIA,Human Protein Atlas,and Timer databases.The expression level of IFIT1 in OC tissues with different grades and stages were analyzed in the UALCAN database.In addition,based on David database,GO enrichment analysis was used to analyze the interacting genes and proteins of IFIT1 in the String and Genemania databases.Timer and Tisidb databases verified the correlation between IFIT1 and immune cells mutually.Finally,after IFIT1 knockdown xenograft model was constructed based on lentiviral vector of IFIT1 shRNA,the tumor growth was observed in the transplanted nude mice,and infiltration of neutrophils was observed with immunohistochemical assay.Results FIT1,a tumor immune gene,selected from the GEO database,Kaplan-Meier and Prognoscan databases,was negatively correlated with the OC prognosis.GEPIA,Human Protein Atlas,Timer database,and UALCAN database indicated that the expression level of IFIT1 was significantly higher in the OC tissues than the normal ovarian tissues,and had no obvious correlation with tumor stage and grade.Analysis in String,Genemania,and David database found the interaction genes and proteins of IFIT1 were enriched in activation of 2'-5'oligonucleotide synthase,virus defense,and innate immunity,and other processes.The Timer database presented that IFIT1 was positively correlated with the infiltration of CD8+T cells,B cells,dendritic cells,neutrophils,and macrophage in OC,with neutrophils having the most significant correlation.Tisidb and GSCA also confirmed the positive correlation between IFIT1 and neutrophil infiltration in OC(P＜0.05).RT-qPCR and Western blotting confirmed that IFIT1 knockdown resulted in suppressed tumor growth in OC cells xenograft nude mice(P＜0.05)and reduced neutrophil infiltration in the xenograft tissues.Conclusion IFIT1 may influence the malignant progression of OC by promoting neutrophil infiltration.

From October 2021 to February 2023, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical and laboratory data of six patients (three male and three female, median age: 54 years, age range: 29-73 years) with mast cell leukemia (MCL) diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University (The Mastocytosis Collaborative Network of China). All patients had acute MCL, with at least one C-finding present. The main clinical presentations were hypoalbuminemia ( n=4), fatigue ( n=3), fever ( n=2), abdominal discomfort ( n=2), osteolytic lesions ( n=2), dizziness ( n=1), skin flushing ( n=1), and weight loss ( n=1). Splenomegaly and lymphadenopathy were noted in six and three patients, respectively. Six patients were strongly positive for CD117, five were positive for CD30 and CD25, and four were positive for CD2. Four patients had a normal karyotype and two patients had an abnormal karyotype. Gene mutations were detected in 4/6 cases. The median serum tryptase level was 24.9 (range: 20.1-171.9) μg/L. Two patients were treated with venetoclax and azacitidine for induction (one patient achieved partial remission by combination with afatinib, while there was no remission after combination with dasatinib in the other patient). Two patients did not achieve complete remission despite treatment with cladribine and imatinib, respectively. One patient treated with interferon combined with glucocorticoids was lost to follow-up, and one patient abandoned treatment. The follow-up time ranged from 1.1 to 21.7 months. Three patients died and two survived. Overall, MCL is a rare subtype of systemic mastocytosis with heterogeneous clinical course, and these patients have poor outcome. A better understanding of the clinical characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of MCL is urgently needed.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of obesity in adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD) and its association with the depressed severity.Methods:A total of 278 adolescents with MDD were recruited according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Their demographic data were collected and 24-item Hamilton depression scale (HAMD-24) was used to evaluate their severity of depression. According to the body mass index (BMI) classification standard of adolescents in China, all subjects were classified into four groups(wasting group, normal BMI group, overweight group and obesity group). SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. The Kruskal-Wallis test and the Chi-square test were separately used for the comparison of the four groups.Spearman correlation was used to explore the relationship between BMI and HAMD-24 scores and severity.Results:Among 278 adolescents with MDD, the prevalence of body abnormality was 32.4% (90/278), among which wasting, overweight and obesity were 9.0% (25/278), 14.4% (40/278) and 9.0% (25/278) respectively. There were statistically differences in gender ( χ2=17.018, P<0.001), HAMD-24 scores ( H=9.427, P=0.024) and depressed severity( H=8.508, P=0.037) among the four groups. Multiple comparisons showed that there were only statistically differences between obesity group and normal BMI group, that was the prevalence of obesity in males was higher than that in females ( χ2=13.631, P<0.001), and the level in HAMD-24 scores ( Z=2.956, P=0.003) and depressed severity ( Z=2.832, P=0.005) was lower in obesity group than that in normal BMI group.Spearman correlation analysis showed that BMI was negatively correlated with HAMD-24 scores ( r=-0.162, P=0.007). Conclusion:There is gender difference in obesity rates among the adolescent patients with first-episode untreated MDD. And the obese patients are less depressed than those with normal BMI.

Objective To investigate the effect of rehabilitation training combined with acupuncture ( RTA) on upper limb function of stroke patients by Kinect. Methods Stroke patients with upper limb dysfunction werrandomly divided into control group (rehabilitation training) and treatment group ( RTA), with 15 cases in each group. The modified Barthel Index ( MBI), Fugl Meyer assessment ( FMA), and Wolf motor function test (WMFT) were compared between two groups before and after treatment. The changes in motor time ( MT), motor unit number (MUN), index of curvature (IC), elbow flexion angle (EFA), shoulder flexion angle (SFA),and shoulder adduction angle ( SAA) during three actions, namely, placing forearm on the table, extending elbow and drinking water, were evaluated by Kinect and then compared between two groups before and after treatment. Results After 6 weeks of intervention, the scores of MBI, FMA, WMFT and elbow extension in treatment group were higher than those in control group (P<0. 05). The scores of MBI, FMA, WMFT and three actions after treatment were higher than those before treatment (P<0. 05). For three actions, the improvement of MT, MUN, IC, EFA, SFA, and SAA in treatment group were better than those in control group ( P< 0. 05). Compared with pre-treatment, for the action of forearm placement on the table and elbow extension, both treatment group and control group showed an increase in EFA (P<0. 05), and a decrease in MT, MUN, IC, SFA and SA (P<0. 05). For the action of drinking water, both treatment group and control group showed an increase in EFA and SAA (P< 0. 05), and a decrease in MT, MUN, IC and SAA ( P< 0. 05). Conclusions RTA can improve the upper limb function of stroke patients. Kinect can accurately reflect the changes in upper limb function of stroke patients, and it is suitable for clinical work.

Post-induction hypotension(PIH)is very common in clinical anesthesia after induction of general anesthesia.Intravenous anesthetic drugs could decrease cardiac output and systemic vascular re-sistance and then lead to PIH.PIH is associated with adverse postoperative outcomes such as myocardial in-jury,renal injury,stroke,prolonged hospital stays,and even death.Therefore,predicting PIH and taking corresponding preventive measures will improve the prognosis of patients.However,the effective way to pre-dict PIH is still controversial.This article reviews the research progress of PIH predictors in order to provide a reference for the clinical identification of high-risk patients,improvement of PIH,and reduction of adverse postoperative outcomes.

Objective:To screen risk factors for carotid plaque vulnerability in patients with ischemic stroke and construct a risk prediction model.Methods:From November 2019 to January 2021, a total of 164 patients with ischemic stroke hospitalized in the Neurology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University were selected as the study subjects by convenience sampling method. Color doppler ultrasound was used to measure carotid plaques in patients with ischemic stroke to determine whether they were vulnerable plaques. The patients were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire and the Type D Personality Scale. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the risk factors of carotid plaque vulnerability in ischemic stroke patients, and based on this, a risk prediction model for carotid plaque vulnerability in ischemic stroke patients was constructed.Results:A total of 87 patients with ischemic stroke had vulnerable carotid plaques. The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.136, 95% CI: 1.052-1.226), total score of Type D Personality Scale ( OR=1.170, 95% CI: 1.043-1.312), smoking history ( OR=3.058, 95% CI: 1.054-8.875), homocysteine ( OR=1.400, 95% CI: 1.179-1.664), triglycerides ( OR=2.356, 95% CI: 1.534-3.619) were risk factors for carotid plaque vulnerability in stroke patients ( P<0.05). The results of risk prediction model based on risk factors show that, the area under the receiver operating characteristic of the subjects was 0.935, indicating good clinical predictive ability. Conclusions:Age, total score of Type D Personality Scale, smoking history, homocysteine and triglyceride are risk factors of carotid plaque vulnerability in stroke patients. The risk prediction model can early identify and screen high-risk factors for carotid plaque vulnerability in ischemic stroke patients, and is worthy of clinical promotion and practice.
